Often by putting a piece of technology in front of the students or in their hands, they become interested or “engaged” in the activity. However, we can look a little more deeply at engagement by considering if the technology is not just capturing the interest of the student, but if it is actually engaging them actively in the content (not just the bells and whistles of the software). It is important to look for “time on task” engagement. In addition, engagement should include social or co-use of the technology tool rather than isolated learning with a tool. Students should be working together through the tool (eg…synchronous collaboration) or with the tool (eg…in pairs or groups with a device). Below are three questions to ask when measuring for engagement in learning goals through a technology tool.<\/p>\n The technology tool helps students engage in the learning goals <\/u><\/p>\n Engagement Checklist<\/strong><\/p>\n https:\/\/www.tripleeframework.com\/engagement.html<\/a><\/p>\n Triple E Level 2: Enhanced Learning<\/p>\n Technology can create opportunities for students to move beyond engagement in content, where the technology may simply be replacing a traditional method of instruction, but it is not actually doing anything different than the traditional method was doing. We call this the “value-added” aspect of technology. Value-added enhancement of learning through technology is when the tool is somehow aiding, assisting, scaffolding learning in a way that could not easily be done with traditional methods. This is the level where learning can become personalized and more relatable to the learner. This is when technology is really starting to change how learning occurs to make it more meaningful to the learner. Below are three questions that should be asked when measuring for enhancement of learning through technology tools.<\/p>\n Enhancement Checklist<\/strong><\/p>\n Triple E Level 3: Extended Learning<\/p>\n Educators are always looking for ways to connect student learning to the authentic world. If technology can somehow aid or enhance the ability to create these real-world connections, than learning is being extended outside of the classroom walls and into student’s everyday lives. In addition, another piece of extension are non-content related skills (often called “soft skills”). In the digital age, educators are often looking to help their students to start developing grit<\/a> and P21 skills<\/a>, that many employers are asking for. In order to measure if technology tools are extending learning goals, the following questions can be used for analysis.<\/p>\n *Click here to see examples of instructional strategies that can be employed to help elicit extension when using the digital tool.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n Extension Checklist<\/strong><\/p>\n You might have some descriptive information that you put together that doesn’t have links. It might include a numbered or bulleted list. There are so many possibilities.<\/span><\/p>\n https:\/\/youtu.be\/hZ20ikUtidw<\/p>\n https:\/\/youtu.be\/iCwfp4vfrv0<\/p>\nTriple E Framework<\/h3>\n
